If he tells you it does, it's because it's probably been optimized since then

I think it was rather the hardware that couldn't
the servers have less tickrate

BT128 was available on release then removed

like i'm sure the game is technically better than it was on launch, but thats' not hard considering the game didn't work on launch and now it only sorta works. now what they're charging for it is "okay if you really want it" rather than just being an outright scam. I still wouldn't touch this thing though, monetarily.

glacial quarry
fusion holo and standard rounds
eager dragon
It doesn't even have standard rounds

oh then whatever the round is that isnt anti vehicle
the 4 round
idk what its called
eager dragon
They're both anti-materiel tho lol
arctic grove
why isn't there seasonal rush
glacial quarry
use the 4 round one
eager dragon
Ok
So what do I do with this gun? Try to play it like a bolt-action marksman rifle or shoot at light vehicle?
pastel loom
I can't seem to change the aim down sight sensitive
glacial quarry
ya just anti material i think
just shoot infantry
dont bother shooting vehicle unless theyre low
glacial quarry
sws is better if ur going for hs
eager dragon
From what I can tell its still not a one-shot kill
eager dragon
Its one-shot with 95 firepower???
glacial quarry
youre using the wrong ammo
use the one with the bigger mag size
the high power one actually reduces infantry dmg i think
but more vehicle
eager dragon
Both of them show 95 firepower and -infantry damage
eager dragon
What the
glacial quarry
just test the gun dmg yourself on test portal server
eager dragon
... Ok...
frank sequoia
Remember when grinding guns, Mr. Mackay it out

actually shanghai i managed to get banned for killing ah by a badmin

it was really funny

One tap and done
manic crater
bro i cant even see when i get shot
glacial quarry
u can get some sick plays with ntw
glacial quarry
but overall for farming the other guns are better
manic crater
wich means?
glacial quarry
i dont use the ntw cuz i cant kill like 5 ppl in 5 seconds with it
idle lion
which means some packets are just not making their way to the server or back
hushed plinth
Well there’s still quite a few around especially on the weekends
glacial quarry
but its good for roleplay cs go awp
next onyx
Shanghai played pretty well in my experience. The constant flow of TR helis gave for free spawns and roof kills.
next onyx
42 ping isn't a lot.
manic crater

But your packet loss that's a different case.
idle lion
depending if its down to your router or the server
try playing a different match and see if it gets better
eager dragon

In this game they don't.

SCAR as of now isn't even that powerful. And the Rm277 pushes it out.
eager spire
DICE knocks it out of the park with weapon balance yet again
glacial quarry
its to cater to the casuals by giving them an easy to use op gun
but ironically it lets the good players bully the casuals more
eager spire
i mean, all of the AR's in this game are relatively easy to use
there's not that much recoil in this game, even less if you're on controller.
next onyx
They need to severely reduce its range with Standard and close combat.
15M 4hk with close, 30m 4HK with standard with short barrel only pushing it to 670 with standard.
glacial quarry
the close combat has more range than ak24 standard lul

AK24, The poor overshadowed weapon.

it's ok but underwhelming and it seems to take too long to get to where it's really good

glacial quarry
kindred flint
I decided to stick with extended standard..more mags and faster reload/feels more controllable
next onyx
It's got a long 5HK range at least.
next onyx
You get round about the same with standard extended.
glacial quarry
just use M16 at that point
legit
m16 is S tier for a vault weapon
make sure to use HB
can just use lcmg over ak24
100m 5shot, 30m 4 shot
way better
next onyx
Ak24 just feels nice to use.
The sprint to fire delay I can work with on the AK24 better over the LCMG at least.
glacial quarry
rn my favourite rifle other than the rm68 is M16
every other rifle feels underwhelming
AC42 is very good but it doesnt satisfy my needs
next onyx
I've used the SCAR for as long as I have because I just enjoyed the gun.
glacial quarry
i used it for a while too
next onyx
I love the platform and I would of mained it before even before the buffs.
Hell I got it to tier 1 that way.
glacial quarry
but thats because i didnt realise how much better the other guns are

Whenever I try to start BF2042, it opens the anti cheat window as per usual, and then nothing happens. It reopens the EA App window and thats it.
Anyone know why or is the game down atm?

I've tried repeatedly taking the aircraft asap (which takes AGES), I get shredded at spawn
When I don't get shredded at spawn by an F-35 static behind me, I get one tapped by an EMKV across the entire map, if that doesn't happen, it's a Hokum or a Nightbird literally LOCKED on my hitbox with no regard for their own orientation, shooting me literally 90° upwards

It really is about just getting experience
Doesn't matter how many previous games you've played
manic crater
yea
radiant prism
Usually in my experience each game is a completely different experience in terms of skillset
Some basic things carry over but learning each game's specific mechanics is what really matters
like learning how to use dozer's shield
I wish I could post clips
Since I actually can record them now

yes

just a riot sheild
nothing more
its really simple too use
just aim it at your target

effectively

Its easy to just block bullets but the feeling of watching whole teams flee in fear is intoxicating

Dozer can throw grenades back while his shield is out, and block all damage if it lands in front
(if they're crouched)

I think DICE still very well has the capability to do destruction, but considering the finals is handling smaller player counts it’s easier to make maps around that and have the resources for its destruction

Honestly the map design is probably why bloom was so horrendous at launch

Conversely it's what makes Discarded... difficult lol. The engagement areas are so open unless you're literally inside a ship
They can't just add a bunch of terrain to a beach/coastline, that wouldn't feel right

I’m a fan of big open maps in the older games considering they all didn’t have laser gunplay yknow
